Humbert Humbert is a middle-aged novelist in the midst of your
typical American mid-life crisis. After encountering Lolita Haze, a
striking 14 year old girl, Humbert's passion drives him to rent a room
from her mother Miss Charlotte Haze. But with Charlotte's affections
directed towards Humbert, Lolita's less than legal age, and a precarious
Clare Quilty who just can't seem to stay away from Lolita, it seems
Humbert has quite a tangled web to dissemble.
